The bottleneck is now on the shoulders of programmers.
The future of computational improvement lies in massive parallelisation. It's the fault of lazy programmers who are still thinking in a single-threaded way that runs everything on top of a fucking JIT VM.

Welcome to /fglt/ - Friendly GNU/Linux Thread.
Users of all levels are welcome to ask questions about GNU/Linux and share their experiences.
*** Please be civil, notice the "Friendly" in every Friendly GNU/Linux Thread. ***
Before asking for help, please check our list of resources[*].
If you would like to try out GNU/Linux you can do one of the following:
0) Install a GNU/Linux distribution of your choice in a Virtual Machine using VirtualBox or other software made for this puporse for safety purposes.
1) Use the Live ISO (if your distribution of choice has one) to boot directly into the GNU/Linux distribution without installing anything, that way, you can get to experience the GNU/Linux operating system without installing it.
2) Dual boot the GNU/Linux distribution of your choice along with Windows or macOS, this is recommended if you want to know more about the GNU/Linux operating system.
3) Go balls deep and replace everything with GNU/Linux.

Reminds me of what I think of lisp, I really don't understand what what I'm writing does but I feel like talking to god while writing it.
I was thinking about implementing an FTP client in Haskell. Am I crazy?
>>55902505
an FTP client is quite a easy task. The problem is Haskell itself

Linux is completely easy to use. It takes no more effort to learn to use Linux than it takes to learn Windows, most people just learn Windows way earlier in life because it's prebundled on everything.

Malware Thread!
Let's talk about how malware spreads these days. I use no antivirus and have not gotten a virus in years.
I get all of my software from FOSSHub, I won't ever get into trouble.
Shit's secure.
Most malware spreads through your browser in some way. Your email provider's spam filter is generally pretty decent at avoiding malicious emails. If you've got an adblocker and only visit a handful of sites you're not likely to get infected from malicious ads.
At that point, your only real risk is running "hotRussianPorn.mp4.exe", which I hope you're not stupid enough to do.
>>55902110
Had a decent thread the other day. I'm not even doing a build right now, I just like talking about computer parts. Helped clean up the board a bit too.
https://pcpartpicker.com/ - Assemble your parts list with price comparisons by vendor and compatibility filter.
http://www.logicalincrements.com/ - Have a budget, but don't know where to start? This will recommend you a parts list based on price.
http://pastebin.com/9Pbm4nHL - General build advice including chipset compatibility, power supply advice, Windows activation information.
Post your list, rate other anon's, ask questions in general.
Just to kick things off, and give a good example, What do you guys think of this build?
>http://pcpartpicker.com/list/pnHykT
Use case is mostly for 1440p gaming (Witcher 3, GTAV, Doom, WoW), budget is $1200 but I prefer to keep it low as possible while having good parts. I plan on clocking the cpu to about 4.0ghz. Is the 212 good enough for that while keeping reasonable temps? Is the power supply high wattage / stable enough for this?
>>55902174
Actually, I should have put that in the OP:
State the reason you are building (Gaming? Video editing? Home server / Gtpc?), your budget, any important features to you. State your local currency.
How does this look for a $900ish build?
http://pcpartpicker.com/list/XpwRJV
I know there's no graphics card, the processor graphics are more than enough (confirmed using a friend's machine which has an i3 and no GPU). I'm mainly going be doing programming in languages with long compile times, like Haskell and Scala.
So /g/, why are you not using NecroBot?

I do have a facebook account made years ago when it wasn't that huge and myspace was still a thing, but I don't use it much. I do keep it updated with recent pictures and even make posts occasionally, but I'm the type of person who prefers phonecalls or face-to-face conversations.
I'd gladly give it to them, but tell them that I don't use it much.
so they actually did it

This thread is about the appreciation of watches, as well as the micro-engineering and materials engineering that is required to make a fine watch.

Is this known to happen often, or is it just a few cases?
I do love the look of the KS, but I'd much rather pay more for a watch with a movement that won't just kill itself sometime or another.
Tell me, /wt/, why are most watch designs eye-torture? What more do you need than a black dial, small, white numbers, small arms, second-arm, and a date counter? I don't get flashy watches. They look goofy and gaudy.
I also don't get watch snobbery. My $40 takes time pretty much exactly as well as your snoody hoity-toity mememaster or whatever. This is a weird waste of money. Watch makers don't have to put that much more effort into it than what's standard, because standard is completely fine. At least with cars there's a big difference in performance. Same with houses or boats or computers. A watch just tells time, and not much better even if you pay ten thousand times what a normal watch would cost.
In short, watch threads are dumb, and so are watch enthusiasts.
Only watch bros will recognize and be impressed by a Nomos. Watch bros also happen to be the only ones that recognize fakes.
Getting a fake Nomos is retarded.
Just get a Rodina ST17.
Nomos watches aren't even interesting to look at.
